Rising
.

Rising fkunone: Shake these shackles, now.  I crumble another layer from over my skin.  Make way, for I walk, I lumber, I almost stumble forward into this foray of life.

I shout across this land, the cliffs tremble in the echoes.  I throw asunder the trees.  The earth cracks before me, engulfing, overpowering, the crust has no rights to itself.

Gnashing my teeth, I smash my fists to the rockfaces that try to bury me as they fall.  They pelt me lightly, an annoyance at best.

Walk with me awhile, and find that I can't leave what's been given.

I rise beneath my own strength.  I shoulder this weight easily.  I'm anchored beside, yet sail along.
